Default UpRev is $775?!!?? NO WAY

03 Zed
ITS Turbo
Intercooler piping
Exhaust tubing
Turbonetics B.O.V.
Turbonetics Wastegate
Spearco Intercooler
Greddy PROFEC 2
Deautschwerks 600cc Injectors
Deautschwerks 255lph fuel pump
Mocal thermostatic oil sandwich plate adapter with elbows
Custom aluminum catch can and aluminum reservoir

I want to tune my own vehicle with other maps like launch control, VDC off and a few others for testing after I get it pro tuned for my turbo setup but..

Is there another program that I can use besides UpRev to allow me to tune my car without paying the price of $775? Unless I can get the "upRev Standard" at $550? A good buddy said Winols but can't seem to find the link. Searched for Rometer and ended up with queries nothing close.


Thank You

Unless you want to try and invent your own tuning software yes Uprev tuner version is $775. You're boosted so the $550 standard does not apply to you.

The point is, UpRev is the company that finally deciphered Nissan's programming codes. They've got a fine product that allows tuning to the ECM that nobody else can truly rival. Unless you want to go to a standalone ECM, UpRev remains the best alternative IMO.

you want tried and tested quality your going to pay. doing piggy backs and S-AFC controllers wont cut it.

770 is a steal I paid a little over 1600 for my AEM EMS Stand alone with sensors and wiring for my old s13

I believe it as well. I read around several different tuners and they all seem to have that "number 1" " we're the best" talkative mess. After researching upRev... Long story short, don't want to blow your motor? Spend the damn money and that's what imma do here in a few.

THANKS GUYS FOR YOUR RESPONSE! upRev wins..Flawless Victory

They also do etunes if you don't want to make the drive. I agree with everyone else though. 775 is more than fair considering the capabilities of the stock ECM.

https://my350z.com/forum/vq35hr/6068...bo-vq35hr.html

Manny's Z is above 900whp on the stock ECM tuned with UpRev... I think just about every other platform requires a standalone ECM like haltech of ProEFI at that power level. Make the investment, continue your build, and post it up when your finished. We'd all love to see another turbo Z build. Good luck

if you ask around in the marketplace you may be able to get a deal from one of the businesses. I got mine for 500 a while back, but it may be because I bought an additional 3000$ worth of stuff from the company but it doesn't hurt to put out a wtb thread for the vendors. you just never know.

For those wondering, get ready because it's gonna be a nice price jump(They can't help that and neither can we BUT I feel it's worth it). I'm happy and can't wait actually.
